Q:Can applesauce be substituted for oil in cake mix?
A:Applesauce can be substituted for oil in a cake mix as long as it's not a butter cake mix. Pectin in applesauce acts as a natural thickener, which makes it a viable fat substitute. When substituting applesauce for oil or butter, the ratio is 1 to 1, meaning equal parts of applesauce are used as the recipe calls for butter or oil. Applesauce can also be used as a shortening or butter substitute in the preparation of icing, though the finished product is thinner than traditional icing.
